fashion-down

Firstly, who here watches Australia's next top model!? Probably no one haha, but I am soo happy of the final 3 & I think i will vote for my favourite a hundred times hehe. Anyway, here is just another run of the mill (did I say that right lol) clubbing look, complete with contouring which I have not done in foreverrr. Excuse the daggy singlet, I did not get any pics in my outfit for that night but oh well. Products after pics! Thanks for looking lovelies =) Natural light... so yall can see the contouring. This is as much of my profile that i will show off haha After I did my hair.. didn't do much, just straightened the top layers a little bit. Lol pic, coz I like the way the lashes look :P Products: Eyes//~ Too Faced e/s duo in Ooh & Aah (Silver & Black sparkly) on top of a silver shade stick. (loove the silver in the duo!! totally gorgeous) MAC satin taupe in the crease. Nyx Black Bean JEP for eyeliner. I'm pretty sure I used NYX white pearl as a highlighter...

 On the weekend my friend came down & it had been a while since I had seen her, so we planned a night of drinking & dancing. I had been wanting to do just a full on smokey eye look for a while now but didn't have anywhere to wear it, and didn't want to wear it during the day haha. I added some glitter under the lower lashline & falsies to make it look more "glam". It was also meant to be more black then silver but I used slate JEP when I should have used black bean. Something is missing... can you spot it lol Emma (friends SIL/ one of my bosses) did my hair & I put on my falsies at her place. I usually have to get ready by myself so it was nice to have someone else do my hair :) Products:: Eyes; Slate JEP, an array of black eyeshadows , smoked out with a bit of satin taupe . Nyx glitter liner in disco ? on lash line with Fyrianne Immortality over the top (hint of glitter), White pearl to highlight. Nyx silver glitter on the lower lash line (doesn...

Hey beautifuls. Still been really busy & haven't had a chance to go on blogger since last week! Hopefully it's slowed down more. Updates about the new job later! So I still love playing around with my Naked palette & finding out new combos. You will see a ton of work looks with them since its so easy to reach for in the morning. This is one of my fave combos from the palette, which I find is a  gorgeous sexy smokey eye. I wore this to work & had a horrible customer that day who abused me, (retail- that figures!) & I cried when she left :( So I ruined my makeup dammit, & we were going out for tea that night but we were going to the gym beforehand anyway so I had to redo it. ~Look 1~ Cheeks- E.L.F blush in Peachy Keen. Lips- bare,except for  lip balm. So & I out for dinner that night. Well we were with family as well :) Eyes- Sin all over the lid (originally I started with sidecar but changed my mind). After I completed the look I added some gold from th...

Firstly, the update: Some of you may have read that I am doing a beauty traineeship... well I am actually starting next week!! So for the first few weeks I will still probably be working nights at my other job.. so I will finish early at the salon then go across town (luckily the town isn't too big haha) to that job & by the end of the day I will be exhausted!! But then I will be keeping only 2 nights at that place so it wont happen all the time.. but unfortunately for me it will be less time to blog & check out other blogs :( Anyhoo the other weekend we had to help with some makeup for a local fashion show!! It turned out to be plenty of other salons there as well to do makeup & a few people to do hair so we didn't do too many people. More talk of that at the end of the post. For this day (I had to work in the morning) I did a gold eye using the Naked palette (haa, well had to do makeup at the SO's place in the morning so it was easier to transport) & a qui...

So this is a delayed post from the other weekend.. we had hired out a bus for my aunties birthday & decorated it & went out for tea to a place that's about 25 minutes out of town.. by the time we had picked everyone up it took us over an hour & we had (between us girls) 5 bottles of champagne 0_o Anyway, I went smokey again but decided to add some glittaa & I was going to do lashes but ran out of time 'coz I did my aunties makeup before..... pics of that at the end! Playing around with the colours.. this is probably more correct. Before I changed my clothes.. coz I like the way my hair looks he he Added some lipgloss because I wasn't too happy with the lip colour.... after all of those damn photos >.   I also layered some Nyx Iris over Revlon Nude Attitude (whats wrong with that picture.. bahah), but that's the basics. For the eyes I first used The Face Shop uh Shimmer Stick in silver then Stila Kitten & then the black shade in that palette, t...

I suppose not everybody likes a lot of drama for in the day time... but if you want that without going too OTT I like to do a brown smokey eye. For this I used the (surprise, surprise) Naked palette. I taped the edges to get that sharp look to make it a little bit more dramatic.   Of course this post wouldn't be complete without a few closeups. Eyes: NYX JEP in slate on lid UD Naked : Sin - Inner Lid. Hustle - all over the rest of the lid. Buck - Crease. Blended out with Naked . Toasted added on top of buck. Lower Lashline A little bit of Darkhorse in the outer corner. Virgin to highlight UD Whiskey E/L in waterline. Black Bean for top E/L Cheeks- NYX peach blush Lips- NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Tokyo (I applied lip balm just before but didn't blot it enough so its not quite matte) Question: I haven't done a picture tutorial in a while, would anyone be interested for this look?? Even though y'all are totally more talented then me :) Thanks for looking, hope y...
